Hi,
I have bought a used 2009 Lava ST scanner with a Steinbichler dongle.
From reading the forum, i have understood that i need a special PC that has a usb 2.0 controller card and a firewire card.
I want to run it with exocad, so where do i get the driver from, when i have the Steinbichler dongle?
What other things do I need to get it running?
Does anyone know where I can get the calibration block from?
I have purchased the scanner in Germany and I have to send it to Australia, what measurements have to be taken to send the scanner safely with air freight?

Thanks :)

Maybe Jensen can help. The package I bought from them has the Steinbichler scanner. Call their tech support.

Hi.
I can't send a PM though, probably because I have a new profile.
Can you please send me a PM?

Thanks

You will need a special license/dongle to use with exocad. An exocad reseller should be able to help you with this plus the free exoscan module to operate the scanner.

A module of exocad. Integrates with a lot of other scanners as well.

Do I need to use any other (additional) software from the manufacturer of scanner "Steinbichler Scan ST I" for example the driver or other?
"Optocat" is already installed on my PC and I have no idea is it for this scanner or not.
thank you in advance!

Contact the milling center in Richmond Virginia. He has everything you need for these.

Hello,
Has anybody been able to get this scanner to work on Windows 10 (was on W7 x64 before)?
I cloned the disk, moved the firewire card to the new PC, upgraded to W10 and moved the cloned disk to the new PC.

Exoscan couldn't find the scanner. We found a legacy firewire driver on Microsoft's website, which allowed the scanner to be found in device manager, but the driver for the scanner showed as a "generic camera" and the driver also couldn't start.

The motherboard has a USB 2.0 port too, which I read on another forum that it's required to plug in the device to this port.
If someone could PM me with drivers/instructions, that would be great!

It doesn't appear to be support by the newer versions of Exocad. We have one sitting on the floor, collecting dust, and I will probably take the cameras out of it, try to sell them on Ebay, and junk the rest of it.

I don't have much money but if you can sell it to me and give me everything I need to make it work, I'll take it.
